Vaucluse / Bondi.
15km | LSD
It's been a long time since I've run a longish run, May actually. Just quietly I've been excited all week about this. The Bride thinks I'm off my rocker, but getting out at 6.00am on a Saturday and running for an hour or two on a perfect spring morning is what it's all about.
Whilst Uncle Hal had the distance capped at 15kms, I thought that I could make it interesting and take a hilly route north to Vaucluse and back via Bondi Beach. That would take in Old South Head Road (mini Heart Break Hill) and Bondi Road. Anyway, I felt pretty good all the way. Up Dover Heights way on the back half of the C2S route I was feeling right in the pocket. Listening to good music and winding my way down to the Beach - great stuff. As always, the haul up Bondi Road was a slog but I managed to plod my way home finishing a tired but very satisfied chap.

Thank you for your donation Gronk. Much appreciated :-)
That's wonderful news Gronk. Glad to hear that you enjoyed your return to the long(ish) run ;-)
Nice run - great views!
Thanks for pushing us over the 1000 post line ;)
I love that run to Dover Heights and back. Although I do mine mostly in the dark, but it is still a good workout on the hills.
All those hills. Looks like you are getting in early with your C2S training.
That's a happy post, Gronk.
You gotta love a good hit of LSD on a weekend morning.
